Applied Curiosity
Did the celebration of the sixty-sixth anniversary of
Columbus' epoch-making voyage really mean more than
an Indian summer holiday to many of us- Americans?
It should have, for first, it marks the beginnings of
the country;we hold dear. But it is not that which is the
greatest significance. Nearly five hundred years before
Columbus, the Norsemen had been here, and other explorers would have tome — for the taking of' Constantinople by the urks had shut off the overland route to the
East, and men were forced out into new courses and new"
ways of thought. '
The voyage of Columbus teaches us the value of applied curiosity — the value of doing something with the
things we learn. ■
Along the wharfs of Genoa, among the bearded seafaring men; Columbus had heard strange tales of land
beyond the outer ocean — of ships that, blown from their
courses, had sighted great capes and verdant islands. He
heard. the half-whispered theory that the earth was not
flat as the scholars in their sheltered lives had decreed,
indeed that it was round. From these tales and whispers,
he evolved his own idea — that these strange lands were
really the Indies. And he had to find out.
The path was long and hard — and seemingly hopeless — all the way from the inconspicuous life ,of a
trader's son in Genoa, to the post of Lord High Admh*al
of Spain. He was jeered at, mocked, and scorned. Every
path he ■ followed ended in a stone wall of failure. But
each .time,; he, started all. over again, determined to find
out... At-last the way opened. When it was, he was ready
for ftWopportunity — equipped mentally to carry through.
Thatds the lesson in .Columbus' voyage. The power
to fitfdJoutj' the .willingness to see, plus the ability to keep
oil,' is"■the.real;secret 6f success. The greatest advantage
in. education is that it teaches us HOW to find out, HOW
to^stjidy and' HOW to learn.
a. .There iriayiiot> be, new continents to discover, but there
are opportunities equally as great before those who have
eager minds. There, arje jno heights to which man with an.
ideal majhnot climb — no oceans of ignorance he may hot
cross to find the unknown treasure he seeks. Each man
is a potential Columbus — and whether he voyages into
the unknown depends upon how great is his determinatio
to find out what lies beyond his horizon.
Ears Know Better
Yea-saying is preferable to nay-saying, as a gener?
rule. But yea-saying is no good if it is used to obscur
the facts, or to place them in a rosier light than tho
deserve. This generalization applies to the efforts bein
made to suggest that the noise of the new jet passenge-
planes is really not very noisy noise.
The advent of commercial jet flight is a mileston
in aviation history. In a sense, it reduces global distance
by 40 per cent. That is a remarkable thing, and thos
responsible for it deserve congratulations. These sentiment
should not be permitted to hide the problems that at
tend this development.
The jets are no noisier, we are told, than conventional
planes; they merely seem so because the noise is different
Though this may be true, the statement begs a couple of
pertinent questions. The effect of sound on human beings
is not simply a matter of decibel count; some kinds of
sounds are more offensive than others, and the scream
of a jet is highly irritating to most ears.
Some effort has been made to curtail the noise of the
big jets. Further efforts along this line would be much
more to the point than attempts to convince the public
that the unpleasant noise it hears is not really unpleasant,
only "different."
Needless Epidemic
A poliomyelitis epidemic is a tragedy under any circumstances. Suqh an outbreak of this crippling disease i&
all the sadder when it occurs in a United States city more
than two years after the introduction of the Salk vaccine
The tragedy of Detroit's polio crisis is heightened by tht
fact that it need n°t have happened.
Though the Salk vaccine is not an absolute guarantee
against polio, it has massively reduced the incidence oi
the disease in this country. Evidence of its effectiveness
has been given wide publicity. Yet millions of Americans
in the most susceptible age range have received no shott
at aU. Many others have had one shot but then failed
to complete the series needed for full protection.
No shortage of vaccine is responsible. So much vaccine
is-on the shelves that manufacturers have cut back pro
ductioh. Nor is it entirely a guestion of expense, thoug!
this may have deterred some families that were nevertheless unwilling to accept free inoculations.
The main factor seems to have been indifference, per
haps stimulated by a misguided feeling that polio was nt:
longer much of a threat. Whatever the reasons, here is a
classic example of a great medical discovery whose benefits
are not fully realized because the public will not makfe use
of it.
Detroit's grim experience, in this autumn of 1958,
shows what can happen as a result of public failure to
accept tested medical advances. Any community where
many have not yet received Salk inoculations might be
the next victim. This is one situation in which preventive
action can be taken by the individuals ■ who collectively
make up the community.
